Operating system: AIX 5.3.8.2
PHP version: 5.2.6
PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure
Bug description: arg list too long when compiling many modules
Description:
------------
Compiling php-5.2.6 using gcc with IBM's linker, and GNU tools
(coreutils/findutils/sed/awk/grep/automake/autoconf/etc.) with many modules
results in an arg list too long error from /bin/sh (ksh). Reducing the
number of modules included in the build results in a successful build.
I have tried manually changing the Makefile from SHELL=/bin/sh to
SHELL=/opt/local/bin/bash (GNU bash 3.2.0), but this results in a different
error from the build... something about an unmatched backtick '`.'
I have tried building some of these modules with=shared,$WHERE but it
didn't help.
I've examined the resulting Makefile and the PHP_GLOBAL_OBJS is so huge
that it crashes IBM's vi (Line too long for current screen size.). I
suspect here in lies the problem.
grep '^PHP_GLOBAL_OBJS' Makefile | wc
1 587 17353
I have tried both the release php-5.2.6 and php5.2-200811061730, and the
failure was the same in both cases.
If someone could throw together a patch for the Makefile or configure
script, I would be very grateful. Or, if there's a way to build this
differently (sets of modules at a time or something), I would be grateful
for some pointers.
Thanks
